I don't usually read fanfiction, but when I do I notice the actual show incorporating it.

*snip*

is this a sign that they're incorporating fan fiction ideas into the show, or that I'm dangerously obsessed enough to notice coincidences like this?

It's the herdmind, I tells ye!

Are there any other similar epics on youtube that you lot know about?

See Makkon's profile on youtube, he has some awesome songs over there.

Anyway, see you all in the new thread; feel free to ask more questions there.

I'm assuming Vbulletin has built-in support for APC/Memcached? If not then please do tell me Vbulletin has some sort of caching system in place.
The page count shouldn't be that bad, really. Assuming the board is doing it correctly and doing a query along the lines of SELECT * FROM posts WHERE `threadID` = '893666' AND `deleted` = '0' LIMIT 0, 20; (I'm assuming a lot of things here and doing it mostly in pseudo SQL, for example: the limit should start from last post ID on previous page, instead of all the posts and assuming threadID is an index along with post state, using deleted as a on/off state since I don't remember how it worked in phpBB). Then again, MySQL is just silly DB platform...
